What Is ltr

The following interrogations seem
to be on the lips OF everyone who has
observed the Autographs OF the Neil
Burgess company, which appears at
the Grand Opera House next Monday.
Is it circus? thought "Vim" was a
comedy. How can anyone ride a
horse at full speed on the stage Of the
opera house? and host of similar
questions. For the information OF the
many readers of the HERALD few in
uuiries elected the following informa-
ton. The circus is an adjunct to the
comedy of "Vim" and is supposed to
be The dream or nightmare of the hen
pecked husband. Everything is fully
carried out by the members Of the
company, who assumes the characters
of clown, acrobats, riders, etc. By an
ingenious mechanical contrivance in
vented by Mr.. Burgess, a real horse
is made to run at full speed and still
remain in one place. This scene is
said to be excrdciatingly funny.
